Applied research to solve industry needs and accelerate technologies in Singapore and South East Asia.
Fraunhofer AISEC is leading applied security research in Germany.
Our System and Technology Partner in the Field of Smart Systems Integration by using Micro and Nano Technologies
With 75 institutes and research institutions throughout Germany, the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft is the world’s leading applied research organization.
In today's interconnected and rapidly evolving world, ensuring security, safety, and resilience is paramount. At Fraunhofer Singapore, we address several emerging fields of research and technology which play a crucial role in advancing these objectives.
Fraunhofer Singapore is a non-profit private research centre founded by Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft. At Fraunhofer, we aim at the creation of scientific knowledge capable of generating added value to its clients and partners, exploring technology innovations oriented toward economic growth, the social well-being, and the improvement of the quality of life of its end-users.
Fraunhofer Singapore is the only affiliate of the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft in Asia, delivering applied research and development services. Built upon more than 20 years of engagement in Singapore, we are a key player in translational research providing added value for the industry, government institutions, corporate labs, research institutes, and academia.
The Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft belongs to the leading organizations for applied research worldwide. Its research activities are conducted by 75 institutes and research institutions at locations throughout Germany. International collaboration with outstanding research partners and companies from around the world brings Fraunhofer into direct contact with the key regions that drive scientific progress and economic development. With our activities we are a driving force in innovation.
Forming the core focus of our research portfolio, the four Strategic Research Fields aim to address relevant needs and markets that will shape our future. Within these fields, our outstanding pre-competitive research specifically targets projects that have high commercial potential, thereby enhancing our impact on society and across multiple sectors. By pursuing these Strategic Research Fields, we aim to continuously strengthen the roles of Fraunhofer Singapore as key partner for business and innovation while fostering technological sovereignty and promoting sustainable value creation.
Quantum technologies open up entirely new and unexplored applications in the fields of measurement technology, imaging, secure communication and highly complex calculations. They therefore have high disruptive potential. Scientists have achieved spectacular breakthroughs in quantum research in recent years. The goal of quantum research at Fraunhofer is to transfer basic research into applications as quickly as possible, for example in the form of high-precision sensor systems and secure quantum communication.

The combination of a growing global population, climate change, dwindling resources and the loss of agricultural land presents global challenges that can only be overcome by a new understanding of sustainable value creation. This transformation requires us to leave behind economic models based on the exploitation of fossil fuels. Instead, we need to move toward bio-based production, working methods and lifestyles – the bioeconomy.
Artificial intelligence (AI), cognitive systems and machine learning have a key role to play in the transformation of our society and economy. The Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft is developing key AI technologies and applications at a number of its institutes. Our research contributes significantly to the development of safe, trusted and resource-efficient AI technologies that closely match the real-world needs of companies and society as a whole.
